Jerry Jones Says He Won't Cut Miles Austin, and More NFC East News

Early on this offseason, there's been lots of talk regarding Miles Austin's future with the Dallas Cowboys. The team's highest-paid receiver has failed to live up to expectations in recent seasons and is earning a lot of money on a team that can't afford to be overpaying anyone.

But it looks as though Austin will have at least one more year to get back on track.

"When you look at the risk of him coming back and having a season that is less impaired by injury," team owner Jerry Jones said at the combine, "that's much higher odds than us getting a free agent or drafting a rookie out there who can do what he can do."

ESPN's Todd Archer also noted in the above link that a restructure is still a distinct possibility. Austin is supposed to make nearly $7 million in 2013, but there's an easy way for the Cowboys to bring that down to about $1.3 million, according to Archer.
